My mom needs a gerontologist

[cquick]

Mom is at Freedom Pointe rehab. She has multiple issues. I think she could use the services of a MD who specializes in Gerontology. Anybody have a good one to recommend?

Seems like a person trained in that specialty would find it very advantageous to practice here.

Dr Winston Evalle is a trained geriatric specialist. We have been seeing him for 9 years and are very happy with his conservative treatments. He does not go for any of this way out traetments and he is not a pill pusher.

I noticed in the newspaper, some time ago, that some of the doctor ads would state that they offer geriatric care. However, someone who has a degree in geriatrics would be called a Geriatrician. So, in my opinion, there could be a big difference between someone offering geriatric care and a genuine Geriatrician.
